On this page, only the travel agents for Panama will gather information and images here. I suggest that you start by compiling a list of the items you will need to complete the product here. Then, work collaboratively to assign what each member of your group will contribute. Feel free to exchange wikispace e-mail addresses. You will need to forward me at least one e-mail that you send to a group member.
Climate On average the temperatures in Panama will range from the low 80's to the mid 90's (Farenheit). The coastal areas have a higher humidity in comparison to the central mountainous region. In the higher elevations temperatures will run in the mid 70's (F). Depending on where you are and the amount of moisture in the air, slightly warmer clothing may be needed. http://www.spanishabroad.com/panama/panamacity/pc_climate.htm
Geography
This is a picture of "The Old Panama" it was the first Spanish city founded on the Pacific coast of the Americas by Pedro Arias de Avila. This city was the starting point of the expeditions that conquered the Inca Empire in Peru, and it also was a stopover point of one of the most important trade routes in the history of he American continent leading to the famous fairs of Nombre de Dios (God’s Name) and Portobelo where most of the gold and Silver that Spain took from the Americas passed through.
Colombia was unhappy with their status, the Panamanians found an ally in the United States, which interests their region – specifically, the construction of an Atlantic-Pacific link. A deal was signed with the Americans in 1846, allowing for the construction of a railway. But it was not until 1903 and the achievement of full independence that the Americans embarked on the construction of the Panama Canal. Colombia withheld recognition of the new state until 1921, when the USA agreed to pay compensation of US$25 million. http://www.seakunga.com/panama/panamahistory.htm
